(arriving at this address is a jitterbug phone, a prepaid cellular plan and a note.)

Welcome to the 21st Century.

(There's just one phone number in there, Shade.)

call

[foreshadower]

[ He looks at the phone, and leaves it for about a day, before he finally lets the phone do its thing, and dials the number programmed in. ]

[ioudas]

Did it seriously take you this long to figure out how to call me?

[foreshadower]

Of course not.

I'm not that behind. Merely curious why you seem to think I'm that behind.

[ioudas]

Are you seriously asking why I have such a low opinion of people?

[foreshadower]

Me in particular, actually.

[ioudas]

What does it say about you that it took you so long to call me, hmm?

[foreshadower]

That I finally became bored enough to use it, perhaps?

[ioudas]

That's a lie and you know it. Secretly, you hoped it connected to me because you can't live without me.

[foreshadower]

I was attempting to still my beating heart, yes.

[ioudas]

It's alright, Shade. It's a normal reaction for everyone.

[foreshadower]

Oh yes, I'm quite sure.

But truly, Cross, did you ever consider that perhaps I didn't want a phone?

[ioudas]

Did you just ask me if I consider other people's feelings?

[foreshadower]

My mistake! How rude of me. I should know better!

[ioudas]

You will have to learn from your mistake, my good man.

[foreshadower]

I suppose such a thing may be necessary. My transgressions may be many, so this is merely one drop in the bucket.

[ioudas]

A drop in the bucket? Don't let yourself off that easy. It's more like a giant wave and all others seem to be but ripples in this one's wake.

[foreshadower]

Oh yes, of course.

This transgression.

[ioudas]

Don't be a baby about it, you love to hear my voice cooing in your ear.

[foreshadower]

It's made my day that much better, yes.

[ioudas]

When you say that, it warms the general area where my heart would be.

[foreshadower]

Oh yes, I'm sure it would.

It seems that there's little that would do that, these days.

[ioudas]

Heart? Or something else?

[foreshadower]

Warm your heart, yes.

[ioudas]

Don't worry Shade, you're already in there.
